Abstract
Agnew and Wong offer an overview of a project at the tomb of Tutankhamen in the Valley of the Kings, where the Institute has partnered with Egyptian authorities to conserve the tomb and its wall paintings. In 2009 Egypt's Supreme Council of Antiquities (SCA) asked the GCI to collaborate on a project to conserve the tomb and its wall paintings. The GCI--mandated to investigate the tomb's actual condition--went on to carry out the most thorough study since Carter's time. A team of experts included an Egyptologist to conduct background research
